Pathway to Potential (P2P) is a strategy and network of organizations and people that are focused on the prevention and reduction of poverty in Windsor-Essex.

Children up to 17 years of age whose parents are eligible for the P2P can pay a special rate of 10% of the program fee for one program per child per session base on available funding.
